High-Grade Continuity At Rowan With First Round Of Infill Drilling

VANCOUVER – West Red Lake Gold Mines Ltd. reported on its infill and conversion drilling program at the Rowan Project located in the Red Lake Mining District of Northwestern Ontario, Canada. A total of thirty-eight (38) holes for approximately 6,000 meters (m) are being drilled at Rowan in the current drilling program. Thirty-three (33) holes have been completed to date with five (5) holes remaining. Fire assay gold results have been received for seven (7) holes. Fire assay results are pending for thirteen (13) holes with thirteen (13) holes currently being logged and prepared for sample shipment.
Hole RLG-25-192b Intersected Vein 013 with 1m @ 141.5 grams per tonne gold (g/t Au), from 76.1m to 77.1m. This high-grade intercept was complimented by visible gold spatially associated with quartz veining and strong silicification. Hole -192b also intercepted Vein 011 with 1m @ 17.55 g/t Au, from 27.6m to 28.6m.
Will Robinson, Vice President of Exploration, stated, “It’s great to be back drilling at Rowan and we are very encouraged with the results from this first batch of assays. Our updated mineralized domain model that was completed in April 2024 has been holding true with veins and mineralized zones being intercepted where expected. The main targets for this program are Veins 001, 004, 006b and 013, but we are also intercepting mineralization along trend of other modeled veins in the system. These intercepts are expected to provide meaningful data points to inform an updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) at Rowan planned for Q2 2026. Additionally, the larger diameter HQ drill core we are using for this program is providing excellent grade representation and larger volume samples, with instances of visible gold being commonly observed by the core logging geologists. Based on the early success in this program and the clear expansion potential at Rowan we have added an additional 1,000 m of drilling to continue extending the Vein 001 zone along strike to the west in areas previously un-drilled.”
